Immune suppression of erythropoiesis in transient erythroblastopenia of childhood

HM Koenig, AL Lightsey, DP Nelson and LK Diamond

Serum and IgG from four children with transient erythroblastopenia of childhood (TEC) was tested to see what effect it would have on development of erythroid colonies from bone marrow mononuclear cells. Serum and IgG specimens obtained at the time of diagnosis uniformly suppressed erythroid colony development from CFU-E. Washed bone marrow mononuclear cells from a child with TEC failed to grow in the presence of his own serum, but grew normally in the presence of isologous serum. Serum specimens obtained from patients after recovery from TEC had no effect on erythroid colony development. The anemia of TEC appears to be due to transient immune suppression of erythroid colony development.
